• 15,000 Muslims to Assemble in CT in Support of Sharia & Against ‘Islamophobia’ This Weekend

  May 24, 2012 at 2:31pm

  Connecticut? Sharia law? Hopefully we’ll not need Peacemakers to intervene here; after all, it could be said that Connecticut could be more closely associated with “the law of the West” since as I recall, Connecticut is the birthplace of a guy named Sam Colt.

• Ron Paul Supporters Boo Romney Son Off Stage at Ariz. GOP Convention

  May 14, 2012 at 12:06pm

  We would do well to remember that many of the growing mass of Ron Paul supporters are in fact “deep-cover” Democrats recognizing the mayhem that they can wreak on Republicans and the Republican convention from within the Paul campaign. The fact that their tactics are becoming eerily reminiscent of the Occupy folks and typical liberals is not a coincidence.

• Report: Undercover Cops Infiltrated Occupy LA Before Raid

  December 3, 2011 at 11:53am

  This really shouldn’t have been a surprise to the OWS. Faces in the crowd… what might be a surprise is the number of folks there and the agencies/organizations they were from.

• Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski Endorses Mitt Romney

  December 2, 2011 at 5:48pm

  If people don’t get it now, then there is no hope. Romney is the Conservative’s Obama; worthless politician groomed for prime time.

• Watch These News Anchors Break Down While Describing Their Colleague’s Suicide, and Try Not to Cry

  December 2, 2011 at 9:08am

  Don brought a smile to our faces each morning and joy into the hearts of many in the community through his many charitable activities. He will be dearly missed. Rest in Peace, my friend. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends.

• Rick Perry: I Would Fire Fed Chair Bernanke & Treasury Sec. Tim Geithner

  December 2, 2011 at 8:50am

  This is a DUH! story. I knew about this three years ago. I just researched it again and if you Google Bernanke 7.4 Trillion Nov 24 2008 you’ll get stories about what the Fed was doing. Also, here’s the Bloomberg story (now updated for 7.7 Trillion) from that date:

• British TV Host: Striking Workers Should be Executed ‘In Front of Their Families’

  December 1, 2011 at 8:47am

  Jeremy Clarkson along with his cohorts Richard Hammond and James May are what make the original (not the poor US copy) of Top Gear. Anyone who’s ever seen that show should understand that this is Mr. Clarkson’s sense of humor; tinged with just enough truth to insure you know on which side of an issue he stands. In other words, there isn’t a politically correct bone in his body… thank goodness!

• ‘Drag Me Away’: Occupy LA Protesters Say They’re Not Leaving

  November 27, 2011 at 2:20pm

  Well now, here’s an opportunity where we can be accommodating. Y‘all hook ’em up and I‘ll drag ’em away with my 4X4.

• ‘Down With America’: Pakistanis Protest Outside U.S. Consulate After Deadly NATO Attack

  November 27, 2011 at 1:35pm

  I don‘t know the facts on THIS incident so I’ll reserve judgement. I will say however, that the Pakistani border bases are known for observing and reporting our troop movements to the Taliban. That results in our troops, your sons and daughters, being killed or maimed. Believe it or not, as a commander in the field, enough of that will tend to dampen your day to the point where, after multiple warnings, one might resort to taking retaliatory action. So all may not be what it seems. Time may tell.

• ‘One Day We Shall Kill All the Jews’: Muslim Brotherhood Holds Hateful Rally at Cairo Mosque

  In reply to morristhewise.

  In (under) the Straits themselves isn’t great for a number of reasons. But the Gulf of Oman (deep drop off) is probably a traffic jam of subs, both diesel and nuclear from the U.S., Russia, China and Israel at a minimum.

  On the subject of Iran’s subs. Go to maps at google and put in Iran (satellite view). Then look at the port southwest of Bandar E Abbas. Yes, the one that as you zoom in looks as it is giving you the finger. Go to the east (right or folded fingers side) of the port to the eastern most docks to see a couple of Iran’s diesel subs, and on the north end of the pier, one of its diesel mini-subs. Those are great for “hide and seek” strikes among the islands just inside the Straits.

  While on that map, zoom out halfway or so and go to an island halfway across (down) the gulf known as Abu Musa. Zoom in on the eastern side of the island (right side). Look around. Those bunkers aren’t for storing potatoes! There are plenty other interesting places to look at on that map, but too many to go into here.
